I have the xtant A3001 amp and it does the job very well. Make sure to look at the max wattage and not the rms wattage. That amp is not gonna work for you becuase its a 3 channel amp which means its used for subs and speakers. If you do use it your sub channel would be giving one of the subs more power then the others and you would need a different configurations of ohm ratings to use that amp. By the way do you have the 2-4-6 ohm version of that sub. |

How much money are you looking to speond on an amp. Wiring those three subs together are gonna give you a 2.67 ohm load. What kind of box you gonna put them in. |

The 403a is not 800w rms and is not intended to drive 3 sub channels, just 1 at 200w into 2 ohms. Nah the 403a is designed to run an entire system,
The specs the seller is claiming are fubar. The actual specs are 100x2, 200x1 into 2 ohms or see here:http://www.xtant.com/html/techSupport/pdfs/403aMan.pdf
Don't get me wrong Xtant amps of this era are awesome(runnin my MB 215.6 Q's off a bridged 3180c, incredible) and this is a good price for this amp its just not what your application calls for.
